FAI governed sports

The following sports are governed internationally by Fédération Aéronautique Internationale and at the national level by aero clubs such as the National Aeronautics Association and the Royal Aero Club. The FAI web site contains lists of these national organizations. In some of the categories, there are lightweight classes which can be alternatively grouped as Ultralight aviation.

Orly Air Park in Kenya.

Other activities

Other aerial activities are not governed by the FAI rules

gollark: The basic raw-value-reading bit, which I could easily implement myself in python, works fine, but some DMP code I had to copy from the arduino library (which is probably why it breaks horribly?) causes æææ.
gollark: ```MPU6050 3-axis acceleromter example programASAN:DEADLYSIGNAL===================================================================2032==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: SEGV on unknown address 0x00000013 (pc 0x0014255c bp 0x7ea10018 sp 0x7ea10000 T0) #0 0x14255b (/home/pi/mputest/a.out+0x14255b) #1 0xcdec3 (/home/pi/mputest/a.out+0xcdec3) #2 0x76c256bf (/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libc.so.6+0x2c6bf)AddressSanitizer can not provide additional info.SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: SEGV (/home/pi/mputest/a.out+0x14255b) ==2032==ABORTING```This is very unhelpful.
gollark: Now, *technically* I could implement all the filtering and sensor fusion algorithms and calibration myself in python, however no.
gollark: So, I want to read some values from an I2C device. Now, you might think "foolish gollark that's something like 50 lines of python at absolute most", and it is except to get anything but raw values I need to use some on-chip "digital motion processor" which is extremely poorly documented.
gollark: Yes, I was replying to ubq.
